The Carbon advocate. [volume] (Lehighton, Pa.) 1872-1924, 1887-09-17

IF the Weatherly Herald errs not, that
enterprisng borough will have Democrat
ic candidate for Associate Judge of Carbon
county at the Democratic county conyen-
tion to he held i'm the year of our Lord A.
d., 1888; and political report has 1t that
another gentleman in the same locality has
his eye on the prothorotarJ ship, while still
another Democrat as deserYingas he is pop
ular, no doubt. and haiing from the same
place would accept n denomination 10 serve
the people In the capacity of an Assembly
man at Harrisburg This makes the pollti-
cal outlook in the vicinity of Weathery
vely interesting, for If the goose is missed
the gander will in all probability be MANNED
Next comes Lansford, with a candidate for
Associate Judge, in the person of our pop
ular young friend Editor Malloy, of the
Record, whom the party organ, the Demo
crdt, sometime since said would be a can
didate for said office; there having been no
denial we are free to infer that Lansford
will butt against Weatherly for the nomin-
alton. This is simply forecast of what is
to be in 1885, We presume that there are a
few more candidates to be announced af-
ter the coming fall election.
Nothing ike being out early, you know,
for the early bird catches the worm.

AFTER the signing of the Declaration of
Independence, which is looked upon as the
birth of American liberty. we had indie
pendence without law, ard the States were
at variance with each other and with con-
gress The dream of liberty, free institu-
tions, DC, which had inspired Washington,
Hamilton, Randolph, Henry and other great
men was fast fading when in IT'S congress
approved of the call of five States, Pennsyl-
vania, New Jersey, New York, Delaware
and Virginia, to hold general constitution
in Philadelphia in May. After hard and
tiresome contest the constitution was adopt
ed and form-a totterlng fabric of nation
we haye to-day developed INTO one of the
strongest and mightiest in the world, and
thus the celebration of the adoption of the
constitution in Philadelphia this week is
but fitting tribute to those who framed
the document that binds together the States
of the Union.

The ADVOCATE is an independent jour
nal when it comes TO the matter of political
discussions; the supporter of no "clique"
and the mouth-piece of no so-caled ring"
it has not infrequently had the baneful
curses of politicians heaped upon it. The
ADVOCATE has borne the boycotts of politi-
cal lings and office holders, but in the end
it has invariably come out ahead, we are
free to criticize, laud or condemn the ac-
tions of any party or parties polite. While
the opinions and political convictions of this
paper at times conflict with the convictions
of individuals who hold and guide the par
ty lines, il will not stop the publication nor
distribution of the CARBON ADVOCATE be-
cause the masses want the only unadulter-
ated Independent weekly paper in the
county. They see the necessity of having
it, and in thus seeing il, they want it

our many Republican readers will read over
this article carefully they can not fail Of
observing the mistakes that will again make
the fall election a Waterloo for the candi-
dates of the Republican ticket. The franz
ers Of the Republican platform ae free to
laud, criticize and condemn, but It must be
remembered at the same time that the plat
form is not to be elected but the men who
possess the qualifications necessary to make
good, honest, faithful public servants
While the Republican ticket is representa-
tive of honest and capable men, we opine
TO the belief that the party could have bet

CANDmLY speaking, as newspaper
free TO discuss the merits and dement's of
political parties and public men, we do not
think that the Republicans of Carbon eoun-
ty took advantage of the rare opportunity
afforded them at last Mondays convention.
They erred when they failed to nominate
William Kane, of Mauch Chunk, foT coun-
ty treasurer; he would haye drawn TO his
support that element which elected Null
hearn, Iiandwerk and our present sheriff; +;
they lost point in dropping that staunch
old Republican war horse Harrison Weniz
of Paryyile, and nominating Jacob Hawk,
OF kidder, at one time a jury commission
er of this county; while Mr.. Wentz would
have drawn TO his support the whole party
vote there would also have been following
of Democrats added 10 the list that could
not have failed in his election. Again, they
committed an error when Dennis Bauman,
OF ParrYyille, was so completely slaughtered
for the county authorship 10 make room
for younger and much smaller man. If

If @. w. Lentz is elected TO the office of

Ir is not at all improbable that Governor
Beaver will call an extra session of the

from by the masses made more preferable

THE resolutions adopted by the Re-
publican county convention condemns ma
tional Democratic rule but forgets TO say
anything about that man Bacliman from
Weatherly, whom the Democrats sent to
the Legislature last fall. Bachmar should
look to this slight on the part of the Re-
publicans of Carbon and demand recogni-
tion. Perhaps It would be policy to inter-
view Keefer, it may possibly have been the
fault of the typewriter.

a RECKLESS MAN.

Whom do you think met ono dayt
A man so full Of curious whims-~
He'll lend or give, or throw away
Himself or any Of his limbs.
He did not show the least alarm
When he was asked TO lend an ear;
And when n lady took his arm, ~
He did not seem to think II queer.
I've seen men hanging on his lips,
So full Is he Of cranks and quips.
And this cannot understand;
Why does he thrust at some his tocl
To others he will give his hand;
To some a shoulder, cold will show.
He'll lose his head; and oft I've found
He's cast his eyes upon the floor, =.
Or let them run along the ground,
Or fixed them on n wall or door
His head, I'm sure, much gold contains
Else why say they, he coins his brainst
Oft he'll indulge a curious freak
At some maids feet his heart he'll place;
To friend or foe he'll give his cheek;
Cut ofT his nose to spite his face;
Explode with mirth, dissolve in tears;
Shrink In his shoes, o'crilow with spite;
VIII drop his voice from sudden fears,
Or else pick up an appetite
His feelings too he'll sacrifice;
A thing you know, that can't be nice.
